"I just...DO things.
-The Joker-

To pretend, I actually do the thing: I have therefore only pretended to pretend.
-Jacques Derrida-

Know all things to be like this:
A mirage, a cloud castle,
A dream, an apparition,
Without essence, but with qualities that can be seen.

Know all things to be like this:
As a magician makes illusions
Of horses, oxen, carts and other things,
Nothing is as it appears.

-Samadhirajasutra

My work is an allegory of our interactions with the stuff we call the world, it is a metaphor for our finding our way. I see myself more as an observer than anything else, I just see all this stuff and point to it. I am like a comedian who simply walks on stage and reads a newspaper. You don’t have to make it funny or absurd: it already is.”
– Vernon Fisher
